(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) Although the invention greatly improves mechanical properties, linear low-density polyethylene tends to have a higher flexural modulus than low-density polyethylene; Crosslinking or extrusion at temperatures that do not decompose chemical crosslinking agents or blowing agents places an excessive load on the machine, lowers productivity on a commercial scale, and in some cases (decomposition occurs due to heat generation during the process, resulting in uniform bubble formation). There were defects such as difficulty in obtaining foam with the following properties.
